School in Kewaskum and proudly served as a school crossing guard and
participated in forensics.

Ben was a member of St. Lucas Evangelical Lutheran Church in Kewaskum,
where he loved to usher and was a member of the Junior Choir. He enjoyed
working with children and was a volunteer with vacation Bible School. Ben
enjoyed many sports, including basketball, football, baseball, track and
bowling. He was a member of the Kewaskum Gridiron Football team and was a

fondly be remembered for his sense of humor. He was a thoughtful, loving
son, grandson and nephew, and will be deeply missed by his parents, his
family and by all who knew him.
